4 TV Series Worth Marathoning

There’s nothing more satisfying than a carefully planned, well-deserved TV marathon, especially when executed with a choice menu of refreshments (chips and pizza and a luxuriously comfortable location (on your bed, buried under ten pillows).

Here we compiled a slew of shows that sate your desire for that ultimate late-night TV binge, sans the excruciating guilt of staying up ’til sunrise—no spoilers included.

BLACK MIRROR

This mind-bending TV series set in the near possible future will have you hurling expletives at your screen by the minute. Created as a commentary to modern society’s obsession with materialism and social media, each episode has a unique plot and location that sets up the most insane twists ever seen on TV. Buckle up.

WEIGHTLIFTING FAIRY KIM BOK-JOO

It’s got all the trappings of a must-watch Korean love story: coming-of-age school setting, cute AF wardrobe styling, Chinito actors to make your phone wallpaper, and kilig moments that are off the charts. Keep an eye out for lead actors Kim Bok Joo and Jung Joon-hyun—Weightlifting Fairy die-hards buckle at the knees with their on-screen chemistry.

WESTWORLD

Based on a ’60s sci-fi flick, this insane TV series is set in a futuristic amusement park where the rich and privileged can fulfil any desire with no limitation or consequence. And as any you-get-what-you-wish-for story is bound to go, you’re in for a rollercoaster TV ride.

RIVERDALE

The concept is enough to hook us in, with the beloved Archie comics characters in a teen drama, The OC-like setting. Though it’s set in the original Riverdale, don’t expect dense, inconsequential plots you used to read in comic form—this show has Archie, Betty, Veronica and the rest of the gang deal with real (and waaaay more dramatic) life stuff. Suggestion: Riverdale’s only in it’s fourth episode, so wait for a few more weeks so you can watch in one go!

While you’re at it…

Set up your binge night to double as pamper time, so your night spent sleepless comes guilt-free as well. As you get ready to snuggle under covers for a night of TV series marathoning, apply two drops of Estée Lauder’s Advanced Night Repair Serum (P4100) on your face, and seal it with Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye Cream (P4150) under your eyes. Take two minutes to dry, and seal the look with Estée Lauder’s Revitalizing Supreme Plus Moisturizer (P6240), so your skin maintains its dewy glow even after your slumberless series binge.
